    Thanks Jody, hope it cleans up fairly well. I expect it to be user grade but I'm willing to be surprised too. Funds from my Vector sale got the best of me when I saw the BIN :D

    Razor Emporium has a 20% off coupon code this month if you decide to go for a nice revamp and replate. Rhodium would be $123. Gold would be $111. Nickel would be $63. If you need the code, PM. :D

    Cool score Dave! :happy088: Is it '34 or '36? I can't quite tell from the photo.

    Being that it's in the leather case, it should be a 34. But yes, need a side profile pic of the head to tell for sure if it's 34 or one of the two 36 variants.

    Must be my month for Gillette Knack/Slim Twist/Quick Twist birth quarter and year razors. After getting the T-4 rare red color Mexico Knack and the T-4 rare leather zipper case Australia Quick Twist, I just scored this NOS USA Knack! Seller did not put the information in the listing but after I messaged him, he confirmed the T-4 1973 date code!

    Listing pics:

    That's definitely an awesome reference book but over the years we have learned to take some of it with a grain or two of salt. He put it together based on what he knew at the time, and a lot of what he assumed at the time as well. I do need to get me a hard copy myself. I have the PDF version but ever since my PC died a couple of years ago, I haven't been able to access it until recently when I figured out a way to access the hard drive of it via my Android phone. But it's really a pain on such a small screen.

    Couldn't pass this up as the price was right, especially with a mismatched set.................
